Chapter 350: Non-Sichuan Grass (7)

Chapter 350: Non-Sichuan Grass (7)

The joy is palpable.

Happily, if something happens to the prince, all the generals in Qinghai will be punished, and he will bear the brunt. The reason is not only this, Li Wei is approachable, and he has been in the top position for a long time, and he has somewhat developed the thinking and behavior of some high-ranking people, but after all, he is a modern person and his class consciousness is not strong. Li Xian is also good, compared with Li Wei, there is still more pretentiousness and less naturalness. Besides, the prince's policy towards ethnic minorities is also very much in line with his appetite. We have fought bloody battles together, this is another piece of robe, the prince inherits the throne, and he can still grow old and make new achievements.

Li Wei was speechless, he had been exercising for several years, and this body was not weak, but compared to these fierce men, it was still too far behind.

Let Li Jinxing hug him, and he can't move.

However, Li Jinxing also reacted, was rude, and put Li Wei down in a hurry.

Walking into the city together, the first was two ways, the first way Li Jinxing continued to stop, leading 10,000 of the most elite cavalry, from the west of the river to the back of Wansu City, this is the most important battle. cut off the reinforcements of Shudun City, and Wansu City was in the palm of his hand.

He also asked the two thousand strong men of the party to go back first. Hundreds of soldiers died, but the harvest was also abundant, in this battle, in addition to the materials in Hongji City, all the deserters along the way and the materials of the Qushui Army Li Wei did not ask, and handed them over to the party as compensation, which was a lot.

There were many war horses, weapons, and especially a lot of grain and grass, cloth, and tools for building cities, as well as clothing and fur for winter. For the bitter party members, it's worth it!

One by one, they left happily.

Li Wei looked at Li Jinxing and said: "I want to stay for a while to defend the city, I don't know who can take on this important task." ”

It can't be Li Jinxing and Qi Mingming, overkill. But ordinary people are not competent, today the Tang Dynasty army can capture Hongji City, tomorrow the Tubo people can also recapture it in turn.

Li Jinxing pondered for a moment and said: "There is one person, who is too young and has shallow qualifications, and the minister is a little worried. ”

"Who is it?"

Li Jinxing said: "Come on, call Luo Wuquan." ”

After a while, a young general walked up and saluted respectfully. Li Jinxing said: "The minister is referring to him. ”

"Ambition is not ...... old age" but he hesitated, he was indeed too young, and asked: "Your name is Luo Wucheng?" ”

"The last general is exact," Luo Wuquan was a little confused, what did General Li want to do when he saw the prince by himself?

"You come with Lone," he said, bringing Luo Wuquan to the city, "If you come to defend this city, how should you defend it?" ”

Luo Wuquan still didn't quite understand, and he never dreamed that he would be able to make such an exception, so he pondered for a while and said: "If you defend the city in the future, it will be different from the Tubo people. The Tibetan people are good at field battles, but not good at attacking cities. ”

"Yes, that's good." Li Wei nodded, it can be seen in the ambush battle last night, unless the leading general is timid, if there is a brave general who can fight well, it is a bad encounter, and he can not be afraid of danger, and he must not think that he has won a few big victories, and he will underestimate the Tuyuhun people and the Tubo people.

"Their equipment for defending the city is also a shortcoming. If the last general defends the city, there are many weapons to defend the city, and the possibility of the city being broken will be weakened. If the end of the city is defended, the moat will be dredged immediately, and the river water will be poured into the moat, which is equivalent to an extra city wall. But this is not enough, with the moat, it is necessary to build an urn at the head of the bridge to connect with the big city behind, and the bridge will be held to the death. Speaking of this, he pondered for a while, and continued: "But it is still not enough, it is better to take Wansu City and Baigu together, build a city in Baigu, then form a triangle, and then build some outpost beacons, which are connected to each other, and you can cope with the siege of ten times the army." Otherwise, the lonely city will be difficult to defend, and there will be no Wansu City and Baigu City to respond, and the army will attack, and it will be lost sooner or later. ”

Although it is not comprehensive, it is already rare. Li Wei said: "Okay, leave 4,000 troops alone, and hand over this city to you." ”

"The last general, the last general......"

"You Khitans also have many heroes, are you afraid?"

"The last general obeys," Luo Wu knelt down on one leg and bowed. Another future tiger will be in the bag, I don't know how Sun Wanrong will be without this tiger in the future?

Packed up the remains of the soldiers, can not take back, can only be buried, bring the clothes back to their hometown, a night of fierce fighting, sacrificed nearly 2,000 soldiers, and hundreds of soldiers seriously injured, with the wounded soldiers, did not stop, and turned back to Wansu City, but brought one thing, all the killed Tuyuhun and Tubo people's heads, 10,000 heads, but also brought to Wansu City.

When her husband left, Liu was not in a hurry and calmly commanded.

For this Mrs. Liu, no matter what soldier would not dare to disrespect, do not believe in evil, let me ask which one in the small city of Vanu City, the soldier is no soldier, will be no general, and violently repel dozens of times the enemy army? Li Zhidu was full of praise and sealed Mrs. Yanguo, this is a matter of honoring women with the country? In fact, this husband and wife are both brave husbands and fierce wives, the husband swept ***, and when he arrived in Qinghai, he made military exploits, and his wife was a female Mulan, but because she was a Tatar person, including the most bullish empty city plan in history, she was neglected.

The city of Wansu was surrounded, early in the morning, after resting for a night, and after raising enough energy, he immediately sent an army of 10,000 to Baigu. This is another strategic location, which just forms a triangle with the two cities of Wansu and Hongji, and then connects with the Jishi Army to form a strategic depth area. The lower can hold the large and small elm valleys, which are the most fertile land in the meanders of the river.

Different from Wansu City and Hongji Bridge, this was originally just a valley and some basins and river valleys, and there were no ruins of the city, so Tubo garrisoned here and was also repairing the city, but the progress was very slow, and it was still a big village. There were quite a few soldiers left behind, more than 7,000 people, but they were relatively easy to attack.

The soldiers were ordered to leave, but before they returned, Li Jinxing and Li Wei arrived. Without waiting for the return of these 10,000 soldiers, Li Wei ordered the attack. In this large camp, there are more siege equipment. More than thirty large trebuchets alone were brought. Lined up and hurled into the city.

The bombardment was repeated over and over again, and the city was heavily killed and wounded. However, the defenders in the city did not surrender, and the area of Wansu City was larger than that of Hongji Bridge, and there was a simple moat. Worried about the inevitability, after all, the Tang Dynasty dispatched several times more troops than theirs. However, it is very close to Shudun City, Chihai, Dafeichuan and other important places, so you can sit and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Moreover, the sentry stood on the tower at the head of the city, and saw a large army coming from the northeast, and hurriedly went down to the city wall to report.

When reinforcements arrived, the generals in the city were more at ease. The lord came to the head of the city, opened his eyes, and saw that there were many people coming, and there were some baggage carts, which were undoubtedly weapons to defend the city, and his face was happy, and he said: "Open the city gate and prepare to meet it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a cloud of smoke and dust rising from the southwest, and the speed was very fast, like a tornado, and it moved quickly to this side.

Nuoha didn't care, the location of Wansu City is not as good as Hongji Bridge, Hongji Bridge leads directly to Dafei Chuan, south to Shudun City, north to Mantou City, Tang Dynasty has no ambition, if there is ambition, it is a place where soldiers must fight. This is the reason why Li Wei is not very satisfied with Luo Wuquan's evaluation, Luo Wuquan said many useful suggestions, but this position was not said.

Because of the proximity to the Jishi Army, there are many garrisons. He sent people to rescue soldiers everywhere, up to Mantou City and west to Chihai, and the first group of reinforcements he saw was probably from the direction of Chihai. Most of Mantou City will not divide the army, where the Tang Dynasty has a heavy army from Chengfeng Ridge to Chiling. I didn't dare to divide the troops, but there were Dafeichuan and Shudun City, and reinforcements could be sent to arrive. He said in surprise: "Open the city gate, open the city gate." ”

The gates creaked open, and the drawbridge fell, waiting for the two armies to enter the city and defend it together. But the smoke was getting closer, and Noha said in horror, "Close the gates, close the gates." ”

You can see large groups of figures, the shadows of war horses, and the faces that cannot be seen, and you may see armor and standard weapons, as well as large flags. He was from the Tang Dynasty. The 6,000 reinforcements transferred from Chihai didn't expect it at first, but by the time they reacted, the Tang army had already pounced.

In fact, I am already very tired, I haven't closed my eyes since yesterday morning, and I am exhausted one by one. However, under the great victories, the morale of many soldiers was stimulated, and the lack of physical exertion was compensated. And after this battle, you can camp and rest.

Their eyes were red and they let out a beastly roar. The gap is not so big, and the Tuyuhun people are equally fierce, but in the absence of guard, the morale has declined, and there are few people, one by one panicked, and some have already turned their horses and begun to prepare to escape.

One of the guards said to Nuo He: "General, send a large army to help immediately, otherwise this support army will be annihilated by the Tang Dynasty people immediately." ”

As he was hesitating, the trumpet of the Tang army came from the southeast of the city, and the official siege began.

Countless rolling logs and stones and arrows and crossbows flew down from the city, and despite the cover of the shield army, a large number of Tang troops still fell. The casualties on the city were equally heavy, with trebuchets throwing gunpowder bags in the distance and bombarding them, and strong bows and crossbows below, which were also harvesting the lives of the defenders at the head of the city. The soldiers in the rear brought in wooden and mud bags and erected several pontoon bridges. In fact, the Tubo people have been stationed for a short time, and if they want to defend this moat, they should dig it wider, just like Shancheng, otherwise the defense effect will not be obvious. Finally, all kinds of ladders were erected, and one by one Tang soldiers climbed to the top of the city and fought bloodily.

"We can't divide our troops." Noha shook his head. Originally, there was a big gap between the forces of the two sides, and once the troops were divided, even Wansu City would be breached.

This hesitation finally led to a different direction in the war. There were still reinforcements resisting, that is, hoping that the city would send troops to respond, but I could not see that the city gate was about to be opened, and the drawbridge was about to be lowered, but now the city gate was closed, and the drawbridge was re-raised, and finally the hearts of the three armies wavered, and more and more soldiers began to flee, and finally the whole army was defeated.

"Kill!" Qi Ming shouted angrily and led his subordinates to start chasing and killing.

At this time, there was not much point in rescuing, and after a while the fighting ended, nearly half of the people fled in time and fled, but half of them were all killed.

"Blow the trumpet, set up camp, and build a mountain of human heads!" Qi Ming commanded again.

One by one, they began to set up camp on the west side of the river, cut off the heads of the people, and set up a mountain of people's heads on the other side of the river. Hearing the sound of the horn, Li Wei said, "Let's start." ”

Without going out to see, this was the most brutal scene since several fierce battles, Li Jinxing immediately asked the besieging soldiers to retreat, and then moved the heads out, and erected another head mountain under the city. The scale is larger, and the base is stacked more than two feet high.

Only then did they send someone to shout, surrender and not kill, and even send a few messengers back to the land of Tuyuhun to inform their families, and then send someone to answer and return to Tuyuhun Khan Honuo bowl to govern. Wherever they settled, the Tang Dynasty would never interfere and never ask. If they resist to the end, these heads will be the fate of all the soldiers in the city.

There are still some Tibetans in the city, but not many. Hexi was blocked by the Tang Dynasty encampment, Hedong Tang was several times the number of soldiers defending the city, breaking the city became inevitable, and finally the soldiers defending the city killed all the Tubo people in the city, and the city surrendered.

After making countless detours, he first transferred the troops of Nonzanpo to the north, but he could not attract the attention of the Tubo people without sending heavy troops, so he did not have many troops at his disposal, and even had to borrow troops from the party members, so he made one more detour. Finally, he got his wish and took the two bridgeheads.

The next day, the soldiers who went out to Baigu City also reported good news, the battle suffered heavy casualties, there were more than 2,000 Tang army casualties, but more than 3,000 enemies were killed, more than 1,000 prisoners of war were captured, and more than 1,000 people did not know where to flee. The capture of Baigu City also means that an iron triangle has been formed in the east of the river.

But the pace did not stop, after a day of rest, the head mountain was moved, divided into two, south of the west of the Hongjiqiao River, north of the west of the Wansu City River, each put a place. It has a deterrent effect. Li Wei reorganized the army, let Li Jinxing stay in command, and embarked on the journey with Qi Biming again, which was another unexpected march. Starting from Hongji Bridge, go straight to Dafei River.

July is coming to an end, August is coming, Dafeichuan is the time when the grass is bleak, and the cattle and sheep are fat.

Reined in the war horse, Li Wei jumped off the horse, looked at Dafeiling in the distance, took a glass of wine, silently sprinkled it on the grassland, and then smelled the fragrance of wild flowers, reverie the tragedy of the battle of Dafeichuan, and couldn't help but be infatuated......
